Sunken city Kekova: The island Kekova lies on the headland Kale, previously known as Simena. The ancient Simena was rebuilt into Kale as  new houses were built on the remains of a medieval castle. A seaquake caused a lowering of the seabed., so giving rise to the sunken city as the  whole dock and parts of the former Byzantine city went under water. A  feeling of reverence overcomes every visitor as they tour the sunken city of Kekova by boat.
